Description

I don't know about this and the interest. I know that Rackell has 4 years left and having the Ducks retain 1M each year is quite a lot but... At this point, the Ducks probably want a high draft pick, and Rackell only makes that chance lower. I feel like this trade benefits both teams. Even though there is no 1st rounders, I think the Ducks will still take it since 2nd/3rd round steals are more frequent recently IMO.

Trades

BOS

Rakell, Rickard ($1,000,000 retained)

ANA

Bjork, Anders
Nordström, Joakim
Senyshyn, Zach
2019 2nd round pick (BOS)
2019 6th round pick (BOS)
2020 3rd round pick (BOS)

Additional Details:

Conditional 2019 6th round: If Rackard is able to score > 55 points in 2019 (including playoffs), a 5th round pick will be sent instead of a 6th.

As we all know, we are having problems with our RW. As of now, the Ducks are on a hot losing streak... ( i don't care how I say that) and are high on cap. Sending them 2 guys on ELCs and a 2nd round pick for a guy who is good, but 25 and will not help the team sink for a good pick. Nordstrom is only there for the roaster spot and has seen to have potential to score, but I would rather more speedy wings and bigger hitters. Rakell will only help us improve for the cup, and Bjork, a 2nd, could easily help Anaheim move around. Backes can be bought out at the end of the season for more cap for younger fowards. Lets face it, the Ducks are out of playoff contention and is looking for a rebuild while the Bruins are looking for a cup.

I think Silvferberg could be had, but traded Rakell would be a mistake. Hes a guy I think they as part of their present and future (only 25 yr old), hes also currently injured.

They would want quality over quantity. Think DeBrusk to start and add to that... Rakell is elite scorer and player on insanely great contract as it is..

Rakell is hovreing around the top 20 spot for wingers in the league. I think this starts with a 1st and Vaaka/DeBrusk and then adds on

Whoa, I thought that Anaheim deal was gonna fall through, but thank god you put in that 6th round pick and made it a conditional 5th. Total linchpin asset.

Ducks have no interest in moving Rakell. If they the did you could remove Nordstrom and 2nd ang 6th and add a 1st just to get them to the table.

Would be a great addition. But it’s a pipe dream.
